Three weeks had passed since Silas took control of Venezuela's oil fields, and during that time, an impressive transformation unfolded across the facilities.

Silas had overseen every step, ensuring that outdated, rusted equipment was replaced with cutting-edge machinery capable of taking Venezuela's oil production into a new era.
